Extract from Wikipedia article: Radulomyces confluens is a species of crust fungus in the family Pterulaceae. It was originally described in 1815 by Elias Magnus Fries with the name Thelephora confluens. Danish botanist Mads Peter Christiansen made it the type species of his newly-circumscribed genus Radulomyces in 1960.
Radulomyces confluens is a species of fungus that belongs to the family Pterulaceae. In St. Petersburg, Leningrad Oblast, and north-western Russia, it has been found growing on decaying wood, particularly on coniferous trees, and occasionally on mosses and other substrates. The fungus forms effused, membranous to waxy basidiocarps that are white, cream, or pale yellow in color, with a smooth to wrinkled surface. It is a relatively rare species in the region, but can be locally common in areas with abundant coniferous deadwood.
